I'm Gunna take it my shit has never been this

how do you apply the baking soda?
Jus mix it with water till it becomes like a paste, apply it until it gets like a rock then wash it off.
I'm glad some of you see improvements! I'm sorry for those who are getting worse or see no improvements, but there's still hope! Anyways, I have 2 pimples on right cheek and one is forming. My left cheek is clear and so around mouth. I do have a few zits on forehead, but they're are small. My skin is still smooth. I still apply aloe vera (fresh) every night before I go to bed. I also apply jojoba oil in the shower and rinse. I do use the aztec indian healing clay, like once a week or every two weeks. When my skin is this smooth, I know that I will be fine, so I try not to think about breaking out.
The sunburn on my nose is horrible. It's cracked, peeled, and reddened over and over again. I think it's really deep...like multiple layers of skin...so it's gonna take a long time to heal. I'm so upset with myself that I allowed this to happen...because being on these antibiotics it clearly states do not spend large periods of time getting direct sunlight.

What antiobiotics are u on? How long u been on em?
Not sure if it's the dryness here in Vegas, but my red marks are so fucking red and dry today. I have 1 active pimple on my right cheek that is just chillin..not doin anything. Do something! Come to a head or go away...stop fucking lingering around and looking bad! So I'm not feeling good. Ughhh.
I broke all the "rules" today. I smoked hookah, had a lot of smoke around my face, I ate greasy foods, and had soda. But it was an awesome time since I don't get to hang with my friend as much cuz we both are busy or whatever. I'm gonna mentally prepare myself for a massive disgusting depressing breakout.
I feel like shit! This Vegas dryness has made my skin look like ABSOLUTE shit. It's so depressing. I put jojoba oil just now because my skin was soooo dry and went into the bathroom and almost cried at how red and bad my skin looked. I can not wait to get back to NY and the humidity and for my skin to go back to normal again. Ugh. And I'm going to be looking for job(s) this coming week or next. Man, what a blow to the gut. I just want to curl up in bed and hide for the rest of the day. Fuck.
No acne lately except for a few clogged pores, but I still have a nice brown scab on my chin from my longboarding fall. I spent the weekend away from school where I went through phases of wallowing in my misery and then feeling better about it. I guess I'm frustrated because literally every week for the past month something has happened to my skin that causes me to freak out. Now this one is actually bigger than a small pimple or whatever - it's noticeable, no doubt about it, but it mostly just looks like I bumped my chin or something. The good news is, the edges of the scab already started to flake off and the skin underneath is just somewhat pink. I'm going to try and keep the scab on for as long as possible so not to disturb the healing process and let the skin heal as much as I can underneath. It's gonna suck walking around with a scab on my face, yeah, but it could've been a lot worse. I'm glad the abrasion was pretty shallow and will most likely only leave a small patch of pink skin behind that will eventually meld into my normal skin. And I'm glad it's on my chin and not on my cheek or forehead or something. I just need to soldier through this next week and I'm fairly certain that by the weekend the scab will be gone. I also have a bunch of tests this week - so pretty good excuse to stay inside and study, haha. I'm not really ashamed of the scab anymore I guess I'm just looking at it as a "battle wound" and a reminder to be more careful while long boarding next time. And seeing it heal rather quickly is nice, too.
Just kind of at a loss for how to treat it now. I don't know if I should put Aquaphor on it at night or something or just let the scab 'breathe'. I'm still a little anxious as to how it will look when the scab comes off but if the edges were just somewhat pink then I think the whole thing will just be....pink. Which like I said, I can deal with. I just need to be patient!
I'm talking to this vegan girl which we have so much in common.. she lives like 5 hours away from here. I do want to meet her some day if everything goes well.
I found her at OKcupid. ^^;; And of course, my pictures are edited so my skin looks very clear. In reality, I have scars, dark marks and always break out with 2-3 pimples. Once I don't have any active pimples, I am going to take a picture of my skin and I won't edit it.. I gotta show my scars.
I'm feeling pretty p****d off about it today. The last time I saw a dermatologist she told me to increase my dosage of antibiotics to one in the morning, one in the evening...I've been doing this for a week and my skin has been breaking out so bad - at first I put it down to makeup or a change in cleanser (both of which I only used a few times then quit) but yesterday I woke up with a huge painful pimple on my cheek. I'm not sure if it's a cyst because it has a pus filled head but it feels deep and is very purple around the head. Also, the cysts I had almost got rid of on my chin are sore and itchy and have grown in size again. Not only that, the increase of antibiotics made me feel really sick.
I'm gutted and feel hopeless, everything was going great the first two months on this treatment...I was clearing up but now at week 10 i'm heading back to square one, I just know it. Even the Epiduo hasn't helped the big pimple or the cyst on my chin.
I'm gonna cut back to one antibiotic in the morning only. Maybe take a b vitamin complex. I know from experience a change in diet has no effect on my skin so no point in trying that again. If it gets much worse I might even consider reconsider Roaccutane because everything else is failing
